![]() …with the lastgenre configuration: lastgenre: I’ve been looking at doing exactly this, and indeed had come up with the following using the inline plugin: top_genre: | I would like to use “genre categories” for organizing my music. Whitelist: ~/.config/beets/whitelist.yamlĬanonical: ~/.config/beets/genres-tree.yamlĬommand: ffmpeg -i $source -acodec libopus -b:a 128k -vbr on -compression_level 10 $dest Plugins: discogs embedart fetchart lastgenre convertĭefault: $genre/$albumartist - $album/$track. Besides that, do you have any tips on how to implement my whishes?Īnd for the sake of completeness, here’s my full config file: directoy: ~/Music I’m going to take a deeper look into that. I feel like the inline plugin is quite powerful and might be able to cover my first points. At best, the convert plugin should convert all formats to opus, but keep all files that are in lossless format (and import them, too), while replacing all other formats (like mp3). Is there a way to conveniently convert music on import? I would like to convert everything that is not in the opus format to opus.Found a solution by using the inline plugin instead. EDIT: Apparently the if condition only checks for nonempty / nonzero values and doesn’t allow boolean operators. $title, however, beets is putting “(lossless)” behind every album now (even behind lossy formats). Is there a way to automatically rename the lossless albums on importing? I tried using the if condition in my path settings like this: default: $genre/%if/$track. I have lots of albums in a lossless format, but I would like to keep a lossy version, too.Is there a way to generally replace the “metal” genre field with “Heavy Metal”? Is there a way to replace fields with another value? I feel like the last.fm genres don’t necessarily follow the wikipedia list of genres, so using the lastgenre plugin will skip the genre “metal” as this is not a distinct genre (or I whitelist it, but then I have a “heavy metal” and a “metal” folder).The bucket plugin seemed interesting, but the way I understood it I can’t define my own buckets (for example put everything from into the bucket “Electronic”). Lastgenre only let’s me canonicalize my genres. This means being able to tag my music with distinct and even multiple genres, but then organizing them into a category (for example tag an album with the genres “Psychedelic Rock” and “Stoner Rock”, but then move that album into the “Rock” folder). I would like to use “genre categories” for organizing my music.It might be that beets is not able to cover those functions the way I want, but I also feel I haven’t really understood the full potential of beets yet. I’ve set up a working version of beets, but there are still some functions that I’m missing or I’m not comfortable with the way they work. ![]()
